2007 NISSAN MURANO Complaints

THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR SLOWLY STARTED DROPPING ON ITS OWN. MY VISOR WILL STAY UP SOMETIMES BUT GIVEN A LITTLE TIME IT WILL NEVER STAY UP. I READ OF THIS IN OTHER MODEL YEARS BUT NEVER EXPERIENCED IT IN MINE UNTIL THE LAST 4 MONTHS. AND NOW IT HAS GONE FROM AN ANNOYANCE TO A LIABILITY. IF I CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS I'M SUING THE HE'LL OUT OF NISSAN AS IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY WON'T FIX IT. NEVER ENCOUNTERED A SIMILAR ISSUE IN THE 7 OTHER VEHICLES I'VE OWNED. *TR

DRIVER'S SUN VISOR DROPS UNEXPECTEDLY--SEVERELY INTERFERES WITH ABILITY TO SEE OUT FRONT WINDOW. *TR

THE SEAT BASED WELD FAILED ON THE LEFT REAR CORNER CAUSING AN UNSAFE CONDITION. IN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, THERE ARE MANY, MANY SIMILAR INCIDENTS REPORTED ON THE WEB. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL CONDITION AS IT RENDERS THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF MY 17 YEAR-OLD NEW DRIVER WAS IN AN ACCIDENT...THE SEAT COULD EASILY BREAK LOOSE. *TR

POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK - HARD TO TURN STEERING ,LOUD NOISE FROM STEERING PUMP BECAUSE NO FLUID PRESENT - LOOKS LIKE POWER STEERING HOSE LEAK - DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND IT IS VERY COMMON IN MURANO 2003-2007 - OBVIOUSLY NISSAN WONT RECALL IT EVEN WHEN YOU HAVE WHOLE FORUMS ONLINE AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT SAME THING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY SITUATIONAL AWARENESS WAS EXTREMELY COMPROMISED WHEN MY DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR INADVERTENTLY CAME DOWN AND WOULD NO LONGER STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. I HAD TO DRIVE WITH IT THIS WAY FOR THE REST OF MY TRIP (OVER 2 HOURS) WITH HEAVY RAIN. IT WAS DANGEROUS AS MY VISIBILITY WAS SUBSTANTIALLY OBSTRUCTED WITH THE VISOR. A QUICK SEARCH IN THE INTERNET REVEALED THAT THIS IS A SOMEWHAT COMMON OCCURRENCE DUE TO POOR VISOR DESIGN AND NISSAN SEEMS TO BE OVERLOOKING THE ISSUE. REPLACEMENT VISORS ARE SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS AND SEEM TO FAIL ALIKE IN THE SAME SPOT (THE ARM HEADLINER ATTACHMENT). IF NISSAN WON'T RE-ENGINEER THE PART TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, THEY SHOULD REPLACE IT FREE OF CHARGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BOUND TO REOCCUR. *TR

THE DRIVERS SEAT BRACKET FAILED PREMATURELY. THE DRIVERS SEAT BROKE TOWARDS THE BACK LEFT CORNER CLOSEST TO THE PASSENGER DOOR AND THE SEAT CURRENTLY ROCKS CORNER TO CORNER. THE WELDING OF THE FRAMES CROSS MEMBER SNAPPED APART WHILE IN PARK, RIGHT BEFORE PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE. THIS ISSUE COULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AND IS A HUGE CONCERN AND APPARENTLY (ACCORDING TO OTHERS ONLINE) IS A COMMON DEFECT/FLAW OF THE 2003-2007 MURANOS. *TR

LEFT VISOR KEEPS FALLING DOWN CAUSING RESTRICTED VIEW. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD THIS COMPLAINT, BUT READING THE BULLETIN BOARDS IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHICH NISSAN REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR. I KNOW TWO OTHER OWNERS THAT HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM. ONE OF THE REMOVED THE VISOR BECAUSE IT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX. COULD YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. THE INTERIOR IS NOT LISTED ON YOUR CHOICES SO I PICKED BODY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. *TR

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK I HEARD A LOUD POP INSIDE THE CAR AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DRIVERS SEAT LEANED TO THE BACK LEFT AND I HAD TO BRACE MYSELF AND THE CAR FROM SWERVING. AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE SEAT KEPT ROCKING SIDE TO SIDE ON THE LEFT . WHEN I GOT TO WORK AND PARKED I NOTICED THE SEAT WAS TILTED AND LOSE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO ANYONE DRIVING AS I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT WHEN BRACING MYSELF AS A RESULT OF THE SEAT BREAKING. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BY NISSAN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ALONG THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR DROPPED DOWN BLOCKING MY VIEW. JUST AS THIS HAPPENED THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME HIT THE BRAKES TO STOP AND I COULDN'T SEE THE BRAKE LIGHTS! I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF THEIR CAR! I CAN'T AFFORD WHAT THE DEALER CHARGES FOR A REPLACEMENT VISOR AND IT'S DIFFICULT TO ALWAYS REMEMBER TO KEEP ONE HAND ON THE VISOR AS I DRIVE! I'M WORRIED THAT THIS WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT FOR OTHER NISSAN OWNERS TOO. *TR

LEFT REAR SUPPORT FOR DRIVER'S SEAT FAILED WHILE DRIVING CAUSING SEAT TO LEAN BACK--THIS IS DANGEROUS. *TR
